Web-based stuff, yes. But I am looking at
apps that dont necessarily use a directory service (such as NDS or AD). The apps
typically have thier own databases (Oracle, SQL Server et al.), and they manage
authentication and authorization individually.
The goal to do all that in a single entity
is claimed to be simplified using tools such as P-Synch and Simple Synch, though
I would love to hear from someone who has used something like
that.
BTW, this group looks a great place to be.
Kudos, all !

Right, sure that's the context I was thinking about.So, what are people typically doing, getting some stuff like this, and then cobbling together a single sign-on solution unique to themselves ? Or are there more generic tools out there, ofcourse ones which cost more and make life more easier ?-----Original Message-----

BTW MMS does not strictly enable single sign ons. It is a meta directory and it can enable the synchronization of directory information across different systems, including in most cases usernames & passwords. However even with the same username and password on different systems a user may very well be required to sign on multiple times (using the same credentials). True Single sign on can be very complex (not that a meta-directory with provisioning isn't!)
